I found out that I am scheduled for Orientation next week at my new job, as well as training. The manager at my new job wants me to give my current (and terrible) job a one week notice. I agreed to that.

I call my boss at the place I am still at, and he unleashes his wrath on me, saying “This is so unprofessional giving a one week notice, you are burning your bridges, I hope you don’t do this to your other employers.”

Yeah, and he was pretty mad while he said it.

I just said “This place put me on the schedule this coming week and I can’t change that.”

He says “I thought you are on OUR schedule until the 11th!”

Me: “I don’t work the 11th, I’m only on the schedule for 3 days next week.”

He goes off to grab the schedule to look at it. (I’m having a DUH, you are the manager, you don’t know when you scheduled me!?)

I got off of the phone, and I was ticked. Very very tIcked. It showed. People were asking me what is going on and I didn’t say anything. I spoke to an employee at the front desk (I work at a gym, and I work at the juice bar, but the gym does not own the juice bar) that came to get some food. He saw me frazzled. He said that he can tell the boss is an idiot.

You know, I feel I did the right thing, giving a notice. I could have given a one day notice, but I’m not dumb. He hired 2 new people also.

There has been so much turnover. You know, the way that he spoke to me shows me how he presents himself, and how his employees are. I have seen through his act.

Him and his wife have called me today. I don’t want to talk to them. If a person is going to talk to me like that and give me crap, why should I talk? They obviously do not respect my wishes. His message was “I hate to do this, but I’d like to talk to you about things that happened yesterday.” Things? As in.. how STUPID you sounded?

I am turning in my key this Thursday. I’m going to work out there still, but I will never talk to them again.

OH, and yes, after I get my last check, they are getting reported to L&I for tip fraud.
